Through a connected relationship, utilizing theories and techniques that line up with God’s Word (ie emdr and cbt), I help clients recognize unhealthy thoughts/beliefs, and then change them to be true, functional beliefs that bring peace and empower clients to be successful in their relationships and to make healthy, confident decisions.
